What a Great Day!

Here I am with the very Clever Roslyn Mirrington from "Bloom"....
It was the first time we met and we worked out that
 we live less than 5 minutes from each other....
And this is Ros's pattern that we were working on yesterday......
 
The day started out with a lovely gift from Ros to all of us....
Thanks again Ros it was very thoughtful of you.....
 
This is a close up of the pocket panel and the magnetic clips
 that my "Thread Catcher" will be held on with.....
That's when I make it of course.....*Grin*....
We all agreed that we should have another day
 to get the whole three projects completed....
And here we all are with our "Sewing Mat" so far.....
L to R: Wendy, Val, Me, Ros and Sue.....
I am loving my new mat so far and look forward to putting my machine
on it and filling up those little pockets with all of my bits and pieces.....
 
Thanks again Ros for a great day of sewing, fun and friendship.....
All that's left to do is make the binding and
 sew it on and my mat will be finished.....
Then I can start on the pin cushion and thread catcher....
Until next time, Happy Stitching

Kate

  1. Nice way to spend a day off. The mat is a good idea, my 'stuff' is just piled around my machine.

  2. What a fun and useful project! I'm thinking I need to make one for me... however, I'm sure it was much more fun doing this as a group!
